What You Should Eat on Valentine’s Day Based On Your Relationship Status

Food & Wine

Valentine’s Day is the celebration of chocolate and candy. Ok, maybe love, too, but mostly chocolate and candy. So it’s only fitting that you have a sweet treat to devour on February 14th, whether you have a Nicholas Sparks-type romance or you’re in a relationship with Netflix.

Here are the desserts to eat based on your relationship status this Valentine’s Day, because chocolate is forever.

It’s Complicated – Candy Hearts

If you haven’t DTR’d quite yet, Valentine’s Day can be a confusing time. Grab a box of conversation hearts, pick a heart, and let the message answer your relationship questions. The hearts bear a variety of messages that are bound to debunk your relationship status. Or maybe you’re better off just enjoying the candy and then calling up your guy to ask him what he’s really thinking.

Still Hooking Up With Your Ex – Cookie Dough

If you find yourself wandering down a familiar path this Valentine’s Day, you need a treat that is as low commitment as your hook up. Try cookie dough – whether you want to eat a few spoonfuls, make your own, or bake up a dozen – you’ve got options.

There’s no obligation to actually bake the dough because it’s just as delicious eaten raw and quickly shoved back in the fridge, right? You can even turn it into homemade cookie dough dip.
